This one goes to 20

I couldn't help but laugh to see how Matt Smith (Big Shark) is motivating himself at Elk Grove this weekend.

Good luck, everyone. Rubber side down, shiny side up. I'll be dashing off to a wedding shortly after the 3/4's race, but feel free to find me for a post-victory interview.

Also: Dig the nicely edited video from this weekend's Cat 3 races uploaded by Bryan McVey (Vision Quest). The Grayslake sprint, which McVey won, is a great companion to the in-race video shot by second-place Julian Baumgartner (Team Clif Bar Midwest). One thing I notice is the vast difference in cadence between McVey (80 rpm?) and Baumgartner (110 rpm?). If the finish line were just a few yards farther, I think the results would have been flopped. (I hope Baumgartner isn't kicking himself for all the extra grams the camera burdened him with.)
